Give me some numbers and methodology. You apparently have access to the site, pick the ten top threads about people and tell us how many many post addresses, phone numbers or emails on the first page.

Edit: I went through the hassle of figuring out how to get on that website. I can confirm 2 or the five pages I checked had doxx info on them and agree that kiwifarms does not seem to have a policy against doxxing and in fact has a culture that promotes it. This is bad.



So, you learned what you could have learned from reading the Wikipedia article or any number of other secondary sources (which you were earlier insinuating could not be trusted on these points). I'm glad that you've proved to your own satisfaction that Kiwi Farms is exactly as awful as almost everyone consistently says that it is, but there might be a lesson here about not being irrationally skeptical of 'mainstream' sources.


It is not "exactly as awful", there have been plenty of untruths and misrepresentations stated about it, both in this comment section and elsewhere.

Primary sources analysed either a good methodology are by far the best way to learn about a subject.


You probably need to dig deeper into the kiwifarms website before you conclude things alleged about it are untrue.


Thank you for putting the effort in. I can't in good faith link to these people's dox in a comment here just to prove this to you. I would also get banned off this site for doing so.


You wouldn't have had to, just reported the proportions. That would be sufficient.
